The Nashville Amcrican, in discuss
ing the southern boom, says
1.-The South to-day is Independent
and asks no favors. While she well
comes all who wish to share her grow
ing and assured prosperity, she feels
that she is giving rather than receiving.
She needs the help of northern capital,
it is true. But she will not have to beg
for it-she will command it.
Exactly. It is only question of
time when the South will have all the
capital she wants, and that without the
asking. Nor is that all. As we have
repeatedly said, the influx of northern
capital must create demand for south
ern energy, brains, and experience.

The special order-Mr. Oyerman's bill
to allow the people to vote on the ques-
ton of an increase of the Supreme
Court to five members-came up, and
caused heated debate. Many speeches
were made, and finally, to the great
surprise of every one, the bill was de-
feated by vote of 80 to 43, though the
Judiciary Committee had made a favor
able report.
A resolution was adopted raising a
committee to thoroughly inquire into
the Department of Agriculture and see
what retrenchment can be made therein.
Minister Thomas j. Jarvis and wife

CIVIL SERVICE.

The House had another heated debate
over the Ewarts resolution protesting
against the repeal of the ciyil-seryice
law. Mr.. Holt offered n resolution rs
substitute. which, after "A long Discus
sion, was adopted by n vote Of "a to %.
The resolution thus adopted reads as
follows
Whereas both the Democratic and
Republican parties in their national
platforms, Presidents Hayes, Garfield,
and Arthur in their several messages to
Congress, and President Cleveland in
lis letter of acceptance and in hume
rOus other official documents, have all
recognized the imperative need of re-
fo1m in the civil service Of the United
States Government now, therefor,
be it
RcsoIrcdL IN Hc HoUsc Of Rcpr"sea-
fafjrcs (the Senate concurring), That
the efforts Of bis Excellency Grover
Cleveland, President of the United
States, to elevate and purify the public
service of the United States Govern
ment, meets with the hearty approba-
ton of tins General Assembly.
The adoption of this resolution Is re-
garded as another victory Of the Demo
Gratis over the Republicans, who sought
10 pass Ewartss resolution, which yirtu-
ally attacked Senator Vance for his an
ta1Onism to civil service.

AN IMPORTANT MEASURE.

A very important measure came up III
the Senate to-day as special order. 1t
was the bill to repeal section 1866 of
the Code of North Carolina. That sec
ton reads as follows at shall be I'M
lawful for any railroad corporation
operating in this Stat to charge for the
transportation of any freight OF apy de-
scription on its road greater aiGount
Of toll or compensation than shall at the
same time he charged by for the trans
portation of an equal quantity of the
same class of freight transported in the
same direction over any portion OF the
same railroad of equal distance, and
any railroad company violating this
section shall forfeit and pay the sum Of
$500 for each and every offence to any
person suing for the same. Nothing
in this chapter shall be taken in any
manner as abridging the right Of any
railroad company of making special
contracts with shippers of large guam
titles of freight, to be of not less in
quantity or bulk than one carload.
The motion made to refer the bill to
Che Judiciary Committee, which caused
warm debate, was lost and the bill was
put upon tssccond reading and passed
/ he motion TO put it on third reading
was lost, hut it will certainly pass.
1t was announced that another bill
would be presented to take the place OF
the section of the Code referred to.
Senator Elias gave notice that he would
introduce a railroad-coMmission bill
which he hoped would meet the APP
proval of both the people and of the
railway companies. The bill introduced
to-day was made necessary Ivy an i'm
portant decision of the Supreme Court
elsewhere referred TO.

THE BALLOON VOYAGE.

Signal Service Officer Hazen's Report of
the Balloon Voyage.
New YORK, June 1.-THE World will
pulish the following tomorrow under
date Of Huey, ILL.,;
The balloon voyage though short, has
been eminently successful in the cause Of
science. The great difficulty in the inaa-
ton and ascension, which were hazardous
to the original intention of the projectors,
rather favored the scientific results. The
necessity of expanding ballast at the out
set to clear the ground hghtened enough
to carry us nearly sixteen thou
sand feet high, thus giving au
excellent opportunity of determining
the temperature and humidity of
the upper atmosphere. The temperature
ut starting WAS 80 degrees, and mt the
highest point was SO degrees At this
point the air was exceedingly dry, though
it had been nearly saturated q few min
utes before at the altitude of 5000 feet.
The very rapid descent, more than fifteen
feet per second, tested pSychOmeter to its
best, and it responded finely. The second
rise TO 600 feet, checked the reading be-
fore made. We were AZ the highest point
twelve minutes, and the second time ut n
height Of q, 900 feet ten minutes. Forty
six complete observations OF barometer,

WOOL.
BTddStreet' g.

Holders Of wool in the eastern markets
are not anxious to sell at present values,
and at the same time manufacturers are
slow to buy. The high prices paid in
the interior for the new clip are having
two effects on the seaboard. They are
strengthening the views of owners OF old
wool who cannot now replace their pres
emit stocks except at an advance, and they
are also making consumers even more eau
tiOus than OF late in their purchases. The
former look for an advance to correspond
with that paid to the growers, while the
latter anticipate greater pressure TO sell
after the new clips arrived in large guam
titles, and are accordingly, inclined to
hold off While, therefore, the tone OF the
trade is quite as firm as last week OF the
week before, only moderate amount OF
business is in progress.
In some of the western states less eX-
element is apparent than at the beginning
of the month, but in Others fancy prices
are still paid. The competition for medi-
um wool is particularly keen. Fear is ex-
pressed in some quarters that the supply OF
this description will be short. Most OF the
Texas clip has gone into second hands. In
the territories the movement is later. No
definite information about average quality
has appeared.
More spirit and sharper competition have
prevailed at the London sales this week.
American buyers are taking hold to con-
siderable extent, and greasy woods such as
they require are frmer. in the English
domestic market business is confined to the
immediate wants of manufacturers who,
like those on this side, are waiting for the
appearance of fresh supplies.
In the Boston market no particular
change in the situation is observed. Me-
dunn woods sell freely, but beyond this
manufacturers are disposed TO wait for iut-
ure developments. Many holders of new
wool are reserving their supplies for distri-
button hereafter, looking for an advance,
| while ON the other hand the manufacture
ers, ~ q rule, believe that after large accu-
mutations are in stock values will he more
favorable for purchasers. The prevailing
tone is strong, on account of the high
prices in the country, and what foreign
wool Is in store is also tirmer. There is
no change since last week in quotations,
which are as follows in comparison with
| year ago:
